REAL ESTATE AS A DECISION

Independent real estate advisory in Paris, engaged before the decision to buy, not after. For resident and international buyers.

Operating Framework

Finikia is an independent real estate advisory practice, based in Paris. We work with residents, international buyers and investors on acquisition, disposal and investment decisions. The mission is set out in a formal agreement: our recommendation does not depend on whether a transaction takes place. Around each file, we coordinate the specialists required: notary, tax adviser, building expert, mortgage broker. The objective is a documented analysis before any decision is made.

One method, three entry points Acquisition remains the core of our practice. Disposition and investment are extensions of it, conducted on the same principles.

ACQUISITION

The core of the engagement

Primary residence, relocation from abroad, residential investment – a single method, adapted to the buyer’s profile. A documented reading of the asset and the decision, conducted before any binding commitment, leading to an explicit recommendation: GO, CAUTION or NO GO.

 → Read the acquisition method

DISPOSITION

Selling only what can be defended

The same principles: documented analysis, the right to decline a mandate, advice before transaction. A Paris disposition is not staged, it is documented.

→ Disposition framework

INVESTMENT

The asset as a thesis, not a yield

An investment is not an opportunity to seize but a thesis to examine location, structuring, horizon, taxation. Our role is to test the thesis before it commits your capital.

→ Investment framework

Our Approach

One recommendation, three positions Every acquisition case concludes with one of these three positions. None is commercial, none is neutral.

GO

Acquisition recommended

The asset supports the decision. The offer is framed within the conditions documented in the report: on price, timing, and the legal structuring of the transaction. Execution can begin.

CAUTION

Acquisition subject to conditions

The asset may be acquired subject to conditions. Those named in the report must be cleared before any offer on price, works, or legal standing. Execution then remains conditional.

NO GO

Reasoned withdrawal

The asset should not be acquired. The reasons are recorded in the report and remain on record on price, the building fabric, or legal standing. They inform the cases that follow.

From the structure of Finikia acquisition analysis reports.

This framework is not a sales argument. It is the outcome of a documented reading, conducted before any irreversible decision.

Start a conversation

An initial conversation helps define the nature of the engagement; a one-off audit on an asset already identified, or the framing of a search upstream. No commitment at this stage.
